"The subjugation of women is...a threat to the common security of our world"





The Economist
@TheEconomist
There is growing evidence that Hillary Clinton was on to something a decade ago when she said: “The subjugation of women is...a threat to the common security of our world”

*Article from The Economist:

Why nations that fail women fail.
And why foreign policy should pay more heed to half of humanity

Hillary Clinton's message of her iconic speech addressing Woman in 1995 Bejing to her call for Supreme Court warnings in her 2016 campaign & throughout her career & her associations advocating for policy or messaging & organizing to today, yes it appears "She was on to something".

Well gee thanks Economist, for finally noticing.

I dare those organizing the Woman's March to mention & honor the name & works of Hillary Rodham Clinton.

Sort of adds another layer to the foreign & national forces that moved hell & high water to keep HRC from becoming US President.

An interpretation from the biblical moment saying Adam created Eve from his rib, thus she subjugates ownership to him, has been Debunked, correcting that to state:
Woman was created from Adam's rib to walk side by side as equals.

I don't believe there were many women asked of their opinion when men 1st wrote & later interpreted the bible.

Just sayin. Thanks Eve!
